MBL 2010

Wearing my hair up under my stocking cap this weekend. Washed it last night, Need to wash it again soon. But I am too lazy right now. LOL It definitely needs the works. Going to wash it again next week with my hair one then use Aphogee 2 minute and Alter Ego Garlic ;)
 
Hi Ladies!!!! Six more weeks, right? I know that I am going to need every single minute of December 31 to possibly reach my MBL, lol...but I'm gunning for it still!!! How about you?

Absolutely! Whether I make it or not-I will show my progress!:yep:
 
I just made BSL (relaxed today). Next stop MBL, woo hoo :D Maybe I can make it my the end of the year lol not likely but I'm still trying!
 
I think Im MBL now (at least the back layer) but unfortunately no pics. My stylist is on maternity leave for the next couple of months and Im not attempting to straighten myself :( I stretched the bottom layer of my hair and it stretches to about half an inch past my boobs :lol:
 
Yep, still in the running! I pulled a few strands from a rollerset and they were past my brastrap (my longest layer), but i'm 9 weeks post and i'm not getting a relaxer till Dec. 18 (yay! for christmas break! lol) which will put me at 13weeks post. so hopefully, with the extra 4 weeks, i'll be set!
 
@BillBackerz67: Congrats on reaching MBL!!!! I wouldn't try to straighten on my own either, but you will be able to show us before the year is out!

@bigbrowneyez: Great progress! You look like you are right on the money for achieving MBL by the end of the year. Congrats!
 
I need around 2 more inches. It been 4 months since I've gotten a relaxer, so hopefully in December I gain one more inch from the new growth.
My next plan is to purchase sulfur the first of December.
 
Did a major trine this weekend after a roller set. Sad me. Probably need to trim more but I'm going to do some more TLC first. They aren't split but they looked ragged. Ewh.

Congrats BillsBackerz on reaching MBL. Can't wait to see pics and good job on the retention BigBrownEyez. Woohoo, time for the Waist Length challenge soon.
 
Congratulations ladies!. I haven't been in the thread for a while and I'm glad to see that many of you have made mbl. Gives me hope...
 
It's been a red hot minute since I last checked in. I'm playing it really close with meeting MBL. I feel like I haven't made any progress. UGH. I'll have to get real serious for these last couple of weeks if I want to make it.
 
well,I wont be making it this year :nono:. I requested a much needed trim and got a cut. I dont know why I allow my stylist to do it to me everytime, thinking she finally got it through her brain. I do love the ends now, so, its not a total loss. Oh well, I guess I'll be protein shakin, green tea drinkin and almond eatin my way into a MBL 2011 challenge. Congrats to all the ladies that made it and good luck to those trying to get those few inches in by the end of the year :grin:.
 
Ok-I am trying to show my progress-My last relaxer was Aug 18th 2010.Doesn't look like I will make it but again maybe in Feb.I had a twistout so I had to do the stretch method. Hopefully you guys can see and hear this video!There are 2 videos!Try both links-maybe one will work!

Some ladies said I need 2- 3 more inches (Tears) but thank you so much for taking notice-and for the comment-this means alot! I am disappointed but I will continue to thank God and push forward and thank him as well as all of you guys for your support!:grin::grin::grin:

Casey, you're doing great!! I think you are very close to goal and you never know what might happen before the end of the year! :yep:
 
I took out a few braids and I seem to be in the same spot. My hair is longer but it's not at the bottom of my bra. My bra is wide so maybe that's slowing things up a bit. So I will join mbl 2011 challenge if I don't make it this Dec.
 
Wow congrats to everyone that has made it!!

I might be the only one who won't hahaha..I just can't put the scissors down. I want my ends to look fuller. I am barely BSL now and I feel like cutting again:sad:

Ummm...put them scissors down-that's why I'm not there yet.I made my daughter hide them from me so I don't know where they are. Maybe you should do the same!

Not to be rude but I think some people don't know what "mid-back" means. But I already gave my suggestion of measuring your back in the other thread. I don't think you need 3 more inches to be midback. You are almost there.

Wow! Okay-that was you! And I did just that.I put the tape under my breasts and pulled the hair down and it definitely was on top of that tape!
The funny thing is yesterday I saw someone with hair that was shorter than yours and mine and they were telling her she made MBL.These were some of the same ladies that said I need 3 more inches. I was thinking dang I'm confused.Don't get me wrong I didn't think I was there but 3 inches-wow!
But thanks for the commenting on my video sister!We'll make it soon-that's for sure!

Looking at your photo I actually thinking you are touching MBL. you grow girl! Is this a current photo?
See the thing is-it seems that there are different levels of MBL-maybe that's the problem-I think I am in that stage of not BSL anymore but not quite MBL...What is that-LOL!?
 
What happened to this thread? Is it Dead now? Maybe everyone moved over to the MBL 2011 thread and didn't tell me LOL....
 
Okie, alot has been going on with me, sorry its been a while.... I'm grazing MBL. I've had some stylist say that I'm 18 inches but I'm maybe an half inch to an inch way from being full MBL. I will be getting a trim soon so I guess I will have to join the 2011 challenge. :( hope is not lost!
 
Casey3035, it's not dead!!! We're still here! I actually reluctantly joined MBL 2011 because I don't want to be there too long!

Hey sorry. I'm not in this challenge so I don't check this thread often. But yes I made mbl a while ago. I don't think there are different "levels" of mbl. I just think mbl is relative to whose hair it is. MBL on me is MBL on me. Doesn't matter if it's not mbl on you lol as long as it's mbl on my body. I think in between stages are still the previous length. So if you are a bit past bsl but not quite mbl, then you are full bsl...I guess lol I'm no length expert. I only know how I categorize my own lengths since this is a personal journey.
